Where Louisiana Champions Are Bred

Where Louisiana Champions Are Bred

Spring Hill Farms is steadily building an outstanding reputation in the Louisiana Quarter Horse breeding industry. The property consists of two locations in Kaplan, Louisiana owned by David Dunn. The founder of a successful surveying company specializing in the oil and gas industry, David has always had a passion for horses. He began breeding Quarter Horses in 2011 under the name of D&S Racing LLC before opening Spring Hill Farms. Dunn vaulted into the spotlight in 2016 at the LQHBA Yearling Sale with a filly named Dashnunder Afullmoon. The daughter of Heza Fast Dash out of the Dash Ta Fame mare Full Moon Dasher was purchased for $44,500 by Rogelio Marquez, Jr. and showed incredible talent on the racetrack. She set the fastest qualifying time and dominated her rivals in the rich Lee Berwick Futurity (RG1) at Delta Downs. The multiple-stakes winner won eight of her 11 starts, earning $711,951.

Extreme Sports Biking

For those onlookers chalking that up to a very lucky debut into the highly competitive breeding business, Spring Hill Farms replicated that feat with another filly the following year! The diminutive Eysa Jess Jumpn (LTE $932,387), also by Heza Fast Dash out of the Mr Jess Perry mare Jess Jumpn, sold for just $11,500. Owner Jose Estrada Quarter Horses watched his filly win five races in 2018, including the $700,000 Lee Berwick Futurity (RG1) and Louisiana Champions Juvenile (G2). She remained undefeated in her 3-year-old campaign winning 9 races in 9 starts including the Breeders Derby bringing her career total earnings to $921,537.

If breeding back-to-back Lee Berwick Futurity (RG1) champions were not enough, Spring Hill Farms also sold the sale topper at the 2018 LQHBA Yearling Sale. Moonocracy, a colt by Apollitical Blood out of the Dash Ta Fame Mare Full Moon Dasher went for $205,000. In 2020, Spring Hill Farms consigned an orphaned bay colt named Blood Money to the LQHBA yearling sale. In 2021, Blood Money (LTE $1,123,142) defied the odds and won the Lee Berwick Futurity, the Laddie Futurity and the LQHBA Million Futurity.

The roster currently includes stakes winning/producing mares like Full Moon Dasher, Jet Black Rogue, Jen And Vodka, Streakin Angelica, Annas Streakin Dash, First Prize Pearl, Black Rosalita, Bipty Dash, Louisiana Blue Dream and Jess A Sweet Surprise. 

For the 2023 breeding season, the farm will be standing a collection of impressive young race stallions including Diane To Be A Hero, Eagle Deluxe, El Camino CL, Louisiana Jambalaya, San Lorenzo and You Drive I Fly.  Spring Hill is also home to proven barrel sire Fast Prize Jordan and the promising Fire Water Flit son, Trump That.
